We’ve just come back from a lovely stay at Son Matias Beach Hotel and would happily return. The location is perfect: right on the beach with beautiful sea views, and everything you need within easy walking distance.
The hotel was spotless throughout and very well maintained. The bar staff were especially friendly and welcoming, which really added to the relaxed atmosphere.
A special mention to Elva, the fantastic entertainment manager, the evening entertainment was great, with quizzes, bingo, and excellent live music. There was always something enjoyable going on without it feeling overwhelming.
Our room was comfortable with a lovely balcony view, and overall it was a really relaxing, enjoyable stay. Great value for money and we’d definitely recommend it.

Nothing wrong with the hotel especially the location, right next to the beach and lovely restaurant. The clientele’s are on the older side. The hotel certainly caters for the older crowds with evenings and daily entertainment more to that taste. The room is quite small compared to Fergus, Near the blue bar. If you’re looking for peace and quiet without kids, this is Adults only.
We’re in our late 40’s early 50’s, the hotel suited us well with nice breakfast good service. Comfy bed and nice location. Palma Nova is a stunning location for nice beach good food and relaxing.

Fantastic hotel, very friendly staff always went above and beyond to help. Ideally situated on the beach, this hotel has a laid back attitude. It does cater for the more the more mature clientele which does make it easier when the 9.30 sun bed race is on 🤣
The breakfast was great with plenty of choice.
We were only B&B so I can't comment on the evening menu.
The pool bar and stacks were of good choice but I did find it a little on the expensive side.
The rooms were very good and clean, we received a complimentary glass of fizz on our arrival and a bottle of water in the fridge.
We had a 1st floor room so the view was good but would be better higher up on a different floor.
We would 110% come back to to Son Matias Beach.

We stayed at this beachfront hotel in June mainly for its fantastic location, and it definitely delivers on that front. You’re just steps from the sea, and it’s also within walking distance to lots of bars and restaurants, which was a big plus.
The rooms are bright, very clean, and well maintained—though on the smaller side. We did have a hiccup with our booking, as we were initially given a pool view room despite having booked a sea view. Thankfully, the hotel staff resolved it the next day, which we appreciated.
Breakfast is plentiful, but the area can get busy. The pool itself is lovely, with a mix of sunbeds and day beds that are cleaned every morning. However, the real issue is the daily “sunbed dash.” Guests begin queuing early, and by 9:30am there’s a full-on scramble for loungers. We ended up going to the beach instead, which was much more enjoyable.
Other notes: you’ll find pool towels in your room, but changing them costs €1. The room safe is also an extra charge.
The hotel clearly caters to an older crowd, and the nightly entertainment reflects that. While the older guests seemed to really enjoy it, it wasn’t quite our vibe.
The staff were polite, helpful, and friendly throughout our stay, which made a great impression

My parents stayed at this hotel, and I can say with confidence that it is exceptional. My mom can be quite particular when it comes to hotels, and she didn’t have a single complaint. Breakfast and dinner were varied, and we even paid extra once so I could join them for dinner. The room was spotlessly clean. Although not very large, it was very well organized, with plenty of space to hang clothes. The cherry on top was the view from the terrace — absolutely breathtaking. They requested a room on a higher floor, and they got one — on the top, ninth floor! All compliments. The location is fantastic.
They’re coming back again in September! 🤩
